The SAP error message
/IWFND/CM_CONSUMER025 Init mapper for complex service - outbound dynamic mapping
typically occurs in the context of SAP Gateway services, particularly when there is an issue with the mapping of complex data types during the outbound processing of an OData service.Cause:
Mapping Issues: The error often indicates that there is a problem with the dynamic mapping of complex types in the OData service. This could be due to:
- Missing or incorrect mapping definitions in the service.
- Incomplete or incorrect metadata definitions for the complex types.
- Issues with the underlying data model or structure.
Service Configuration: The OData service might not be properly configured to handle the complex types, leading to failures during the mapping process.
Data Issues: If the data being processed does not conform to the expected structure or contains unexpected values, it can lead to mapping errors.
Versioning Issues: If there are changes in the data model or service definitions that are not reflected in the service implementation, it can cause mapping failures.
Solution:
Check Mapping Definitions: Review the mapping definitions for the OData service. Ensure that all complex types are correctly defined and that the mappings are complete.
Validate Metadata: Use transaction code
/IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE
to check the service metadata. Ensure that the complex types are correctly defined in the metadata and that there are no discrepancies.Debugging: Use the SAP Gateway Client (transaction
/IWFND/GW_CLIENT
) to test the service and analyze the response. You can also use debugging tools to step through the mapping process and identify where the failure occurs.Check Data Consistency: Ensure that the data being processed is consistent with the expected structure. Look for any anomalies or unexpected values in the data.
Service Activation: If changes have been made to the service or data model, ensure that the service is reactivated. You can do this in the service maintenance transaction.
Review Logs: Check the application logs (transaction SLG1) for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the issue.
Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or community forums for any known issues or patches related to the specific version of SAP Gateway you are using.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
